I've problem! I cannot import files FullHD in FinalCutPro 6, using my Camcorder, a Panasonic HDC-SDT750.

I've a OSX 10.6.3. HD video, I have to import them with I'Movie, Final Cut doesn't recognize them. Where's the problem? Thanks for helping me!

Gotcha...I was wondering if either you or he were suffering from muscle memory...typing the words you type the most. I still type "Shane" instead of "Shake" almost all the time.
FullHD...stupid marketting term. All it means is full raster 1920x1080... the footage is still HIGHLY compressed...not shooting UNCOMPRESSED HD. The AVCHD that the camera shoots gets converted to ProRes 422...just to warn you, the file sizes of the footage will increase to about 4 times the size of the original. Meaning if you have recorded 1GB of video, FCP will import that and it will take up 4GB of space. This is because the shooting format isn't editable...it is highly compressed and in a non-editable format. FCP converts it to ProRes, a high quality format, so that you can work with it.
Make sure that you use an external hard drive for this footage. Firewire800 or better connection. DO NOT USE THE COMPUTERS SYSTEM DRIVE TO STORE THIS FOOTAGE. It isn't designed to work with video, and space will go FAST.

Help--Cannot Import Files!

I cannot import files into Final Cut Express HD 3.5. I have downloaded the latest updates and am on OS 10.4.9, but the problem started before the OS upgrade, so that isn't the problem.
My Macbook is about 2 weeks old, and the program worked when I first got it. But then it started to give me this message:
I installed the latest FCE Updates, but nothing seems to help. The only solution I have found is to create a seperate user account for video editing. I don't know why that works, but it's a pain. I don't like having to log out to work on a video.
The files are just JPGs, and I even imported these same pictures before. Video files do not work either.
I have searched and haven't found anything.
Help would be appreciated.

Have you tried deleting the preferences files in the account that doesn't work, as in Final Cut Express 2: How to Delete the Preference Files?
Make sure you delete all 3 files: just adapt names to your version of FCE.

I cannot import files on to FCPX.

I have tried everything, trashing preferences and reinstalling app, but nothing seems to work. I deleted movie files to make space on the hard drive, since then I cannot get fcpx to load any files and work properly. What am I doing wrong?

I deleted quick time movie files. The app then would not load properly. I then binned the whole app, and re-installed it from the app store. FCPX would not load at all at that point. I trashed preferences using digital rebellion. No joy. I then wiped the hard drive (backing everything up this time) and re-installed OSX mountain lion (latest version) and then again reinstalled the app. FCPX now loads, but it will not load any projects in the viewer or import files from any of my sd cards. It is not a hardware problem I have checked, I dont care if I lose files from FCPX I just want to be able to use the program again.
Did you perform a clean install?

Lightroom 4.4 cannot import files exported from CaptureOne Pro8, but LR5 can??

I am a recent new user to PhaseOne's CaptureOne Pro8 software. I am using it for some RAW conversions, but still want to use my LR4.4 product to catalog, and further edit, those conversions.
I have tried exporting TIFF, DNG, and JPG from Pro8, but NONE of those files can be imported by LR4.4 I can selected the file, and then LR hangs on "Importing files...". Oddly enough, I can move to other LR modules, like Develop, and the software still works, but the import never completes.
I downloaded a trial LR5.6 via Creative Cloud, and that version of Lightroom imports the JPG files just fine. I have not tried to see if TIFF or DNG can be imported.
So my questions come down to :
Are there any LR4.4 users here who also have CaptureOne Pro8? Can you import Pro8-exported JPGs into LR4.4?
Is there any insight as to how LR5.6 handles files differently than LR4.4 that could explain why LR4.4 cannot load these files?
I have no other issues with any other software package that can read JPGs, only LR4.4. Keep in mind LR5.6 works fine, as well.
Hmmm?
Thanks for any help, insight,
Mike

BKKDon - Thank you so much for the Photoshop Family route. I kinda found myself going in circles on the Adobe support pages, and thought this user-to-user forum was my only option for LR4 support. Appreciate the link.
And, I believe you have helped me greatly narrow the problem down. I was not familiar with JFIF, and now I am. I was able to find some utilities to essentially strip all of the APP markers within the JFIF, and now I can import those files into LR4. I suspect that CO7 did not utilize APP marker in the JFIFs, CO8 does, and LR4 stumbles when it sees APP markers. That's speculation based on how I made the LR4 import work, and not by doing direct inspection of different JPGs or JFIFs. Thanks for the tip on JFIF, that gave me a lead that panned out.
Now if I could just figure out why DNG and TIFF seem to be similarly afflicted, LOL.

Getting Started with FCE - Problems with my imported files

Hi,
I'm trying to get started with Final Cut Express, but I'm experiencing lots of problems when I import my project from iMovie.
My project contains video, which I imported into iMovie at 960 x 540. It also contains some keynote animations, which I exported from Keynote as quicktime files.
When I export my files to FCE, I instantly get problems.
1) When I add the imported file to the sequence, I get an "Attention the clip does not match the sequence's setting or any of your sequence settings" error.
2) Whether I choose to translate my settings or not, I try to play the video in the timeline, but there is a continuous beeping sound, no audio from my video and when it hits the keynote animations, it just says "unrendered" or "media offline".
Please can you offer any advice on how I can get started with FCE more successfully.
Thanks!

Hi(Bonjour)!
(please specify iMovie and FCE version)
Well, your sequence settings in FCE should be DV-PAL 48 Khz.
Create a new sequence.
From iMovie and Keynote, export your movie with quicktime conversion andd select DV-PAL 48 kHz (*And Not* DV Stream...). This material should play without rendering because his format and codec match the sequence's codec.
Import your files and everything should be OK.
Michel Boissonneault
The audio should be AIFF 48 kHz 16 bit linear PCM

Error Message: Cannot import files because they cannot be found.

What do I do? I just purchased this! I tried restarting and I just installed it about an hour ago. I shouldn't already have this problem!

A couple of questions/assumptions. The folders panel on the left side of the screen should be pointing to the location of the the files you wish to import and the panel on the right side should be pointing to where you want LR to store the imported files. Are you doing a move, copy or DNG conversion or are you telling Lightroom to just leave the files where they are and just import them into the catalog? Are you importing from a camera/card reader? The message indicates that LR can't read the folder that you pointed it to so there could be a number of reasons for that including security issues. More details would help.
If you are importing directly from a camera or card reader, sometimes copying the files from the card to a temporary folder on your desktop and them importing the files from there works better but I can't explain why. This is what I do as part of my own workflow but I have read other posts where people have said that doing this first copy worked for them.

Win: Cannot import files from camera

I am running PSE 6.0 on Windows XP. I have updated Camera Raw to the latest version. I have a Canon EOS XSi camera attached. When trying to import the files for the camera I get the message "Adobe Photoshop Elements cannot upload files from this device...." Camera is connected properly and has a strongly charged battery. PSE also cannot open or import RAW files that were transferred from the camera to the harddisk using other software. Latest version of the Camera Raw plugin is documented to support this camera. What am I missing? The import is working on a RAW file when this message occurs. The import stops and no files are imported.

Which version of Camera Raw are you using ? Can you try copying these files from your camera on your hard disk and then trying import via File->Get Photos from Files and Folders.

Import problem II (cannot import anything)

HI,
Since upgrade FCPX 10.2 yesterday, I cannot import anything from my Camera or from my SD Card. The media import window seem to work but when I hit the «Import» button, nothing happen.
I can see and play my clip in the Import windows.
I can drag and drop thing from the finder but my movie from my Sony NXCAM AVCHD cannot be drag and drop.
I'll try to import my media from Sony «software tools»... but i prefer work with FCP.
I tried in a new project, in new event and in a new library but nothing work.
Thanks for your help !
Mathieu
MacPro 2x2.8, 32GB,
OS 10.10.3,
FCPX 10.2

Yes, my window is active. I can browse in it, play the clip and change settings . My 1st screen shot is odd because I used «Grab» to capture the window. My active application was Grab instead FCPX... There is the good one.
I did trash prefs and repair permissions.
Thanks

Cannot import files from hard drive

I just got an iPod and downloaded iTunes (for Windows). I imported some music from CDs, but I can't import files from my hard drive. I've tried adding them as files and in a folder. Every time, nothing happens. I don't get an error message, but the songs don't show up anywhere in iTunes or on my iPod. Can anyone help me?
P.S. They are .aac files.
iTunes 7.0.2.16 Windows XP

Can you confirm that you are following one of the methods in the Add to Library section of this article in the Apple Knowledge Base.
In particular, pay attention to the statement that "iTunes adds entries in your iTunes library for the selected files, and copies the files to your iTunes Music folder (if you have that option selected in the Advanced pane of iTunes preferences)."

Cannot import DCs, necessary for Web Dynpro use in CAF GP

Hello!
I'm a newbie in SAP technologies. I want to develop a Web Dynpro (WD) application, which will be used as UI in CAF GP. The problem is that I cannot import necessary DCs for this!
As I understand, the following ones are necessary to develop a WD app for use in GP:
caf/eu/gp/api
caf/eu/gp/api/wd
com.sap.security.api.sda
(according to http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/b2/06ae42848bb211e10000000a155106/content.htm)
I acted as it is described in "Implementing a Web Dynpro CO which Implements the GP Interface" (https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/50d74ada-0c01-0010-07a8-8c118d408e59).
Actually, those DCs don't exist in my local configuration - so, as it is told in "Implementing a Web Dynpro CO which Implements the GP Interface", I tried to get the DCs from remote host (there's a server in Intranet with all stuff installed). In NetWeaver Dev Studio, in "Preferences -> Development Configuration Pool" I have written http://<local server>:50100. Actually, I don't know, what port should be used - I've written the one, which handles requests to SAP NetWeaver Portal. The response to "ping" button click is "HTTP response code: 403 (Forbidden)".
I tried to check the status of SLD, and went to http://<local server>:50100/sld. I have successfully logged in, but when I try to go to tab "Administration", I receive the message " 403 Forbidden. You are not authorized to view the requested resource."
Is there a problem with my roles & groups? Actually, I'm in group SAP_SLD_ADMINISTRATOR.
What is wrong?
How can I get the detailed information about the error (log files or something)?
Thanks in advance!

Barry, as I understand, I have no these roles, available for granting. Maybe, I've acted in a wrong way (the version of SAP NetWeaver is "Release 2004s".):
I logged in NetWeaver portal as administrator, went to section "User administration", selected my user, opened the tab "Assigned Groups" and searched for the groups you've written - I found no one

Cannot copy file because it is in use

On my new iMac I have some files that I have downloaded and want to archive on an external drive. For some reasons Finder complains that the file cannot be copied because it is in use. And it is not. I have tried all that I have found on the Internet including compressing the file and then copying it. But even the compressed file appears to Finder to be in use. Anything you can suggest would be appreciated.
Farzad

Thanks, Don.
You are correct. I agree that no one besides me would know what I have or have not tired. Sorry, Kappy - thanks for having responded to my message. I thought it would be a given that anyone smart enough to find Apple Support Forum would have known to try some initial stuff before getting here. Never the less, I should have mentioned it in another way and been clear.
I have found a solution - for anyone else who may stumble on this discussion. I have sort of succeeded with using the Ternminal to manually copy the files that Finder refuses to copy. But now I can't do that either. It seems the problem is with large files and based on questions of others on the general internet, that it is not just me - it could be the OS. Some of these files I am dealing with are between 1.0 to 6.0 GB.
Thanks again, folks.
Farzad
